was thinking about shoving this in the BR tree.

thoughts on that?

Shall I bother. I'll have a play with this one RSN and see what it can do.

Wondered if anyone has ever used it / thought of using it . thanks.

Have a dual screened Kindle? I fail to see the reason to put this on the Kindle, (but i often fail to see the obvious...)

twobob · 10-03-2012, 07:57 AM

hmm. well. possibly touchscreen driven vnc co-ords *MIGHT* be cool.

I'm undecided.

Two Kindles side-by-side so that you can see two pages at the same time, like in a book?

Better not let Amazon marketing read the above, it might get them thinking about only providing Kindles in pairs. One for odd pages, one for even pages.
You know what happens when a marketing department sees something that might double their sales.

I suppose I'll put it on the pile for later. seems a very trivial job to add it so why not.

Thanks guys.

Like this:

I don't recall if that product ever came to market.

Heh yeah. someone thought "I know, let's halve our costs!"

I think a http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beowulf_cluster is in order from GM on his ten squillion devices

now you mention it

I want to remove the glass eink screens and mount them edge-to-edge in a large 8x8 grid. A wall-mounted 4800x6400 eink display would be cool, even if it takes a K3 Beowulf cluster to drive it.

twobob · 10-03-2012, 10:23 AM

actually I think the synergy client(s) /server I offered can do that. All kindle compiled so one could run the others...

I'll have to have another look at it - it's been a decade or something but I think that is what it does IIRC.

: ) A cluster would be way cool. a kindle supercomputer is hackaday worthy or something is wrong with the world!!!

still Doom on a kindle *Might* sneak in there too, since it would be the first actual REAL fps game on the device I believe (tiny, jerky, ugly, gameboy hacks withstanding)
